NBS Awards

In order to promote excellence in the field of numismatic literature,
and to recognize outstanding contributions to our house organ and the field
of numismatic knowledge in general, the Numismatic Bibliomania Society
has established several awards.

Established and endowed in perpetuity ($1000), but I cannot find in either The Asylum or The E-Sylum, at which NBS Board Meeting this action was taken,
If memory serves, it was at NBS Board Meeting, 2008.

This is distinct from the Aaron Feldman Memorial Exhibit Award, which was established and endowed by the NBS Board at the same annual meeting in 1991.
This endowed award will be covered below; those listed in this section are the winners for lifetime achievement

[Superseded after 1996 by the George Frederick Kolbe Award for Lifetime Achievement in Numismatic Literature]

Aaron Feldman Memorial Exhibit Award (1991-Present)

Established and endowed in perpetuity ($3000) at NBS Board Meeting, 1991 (Vol 9, No 4), 1991.

Young Numismatist Writing Contest

Established at NBS Board Meeting, 1996 (Vol 14, No 3), 1996.
There is no evidence in The Asylum that this contest was ever held, nor any prizes awarded
